Raindrops - good to hear from you, sorry to hear you are still recovering, wishing you a speedier recovery and energy burst!!
Amy - sounds like you are having some wins with both Phoebe and Natty - yaaaaaah for your girls. Hopefully it continues and keeps getting easier every day. LOL - Play pen - DOH of course - hahahaha cant believe I called it a cage - LMAO. It was Bailey that was born with a tooth, not DH LOL - fortunately it has gone back down into the gum. (And no the MIL didn't BF despite offering advice to me about it which is a PITA, we were out to lunch yesterday and I took a bottle of EBM for Bailey and he took a while to drink it as was distracted with everyone around. MIL decided it was the bottle (it wasn't, it was because others like her were in his face rather than leaving me to feed him) so suggested I feed him where the nappy change facitilites were instead. As this was the disabled TOILET I politely declined. I felt like telling her to take her lunch and go and eat it in the loo).
Jess - sorry to hear your first 2 test didn't go too well. Great that Andy is being so good, must make it so much easier!
Bridg - nice block of sleep!! Has it continued?
Bella - good to hear from you!! Sounds like a feeding frenzy - perhaps a growth spurt?
Niadla - I dont think Bailey has a flat spot, but he definately prefers one side - always turning his head to the left, sometimes I can get him to turn it the other way, sometimes not LOL - not much else I can do. How fantastic is Allira doing? I bet you are a proud Mummy - congrats on the 2 month milestone
Vic - did you sort out your medicare cards? Are you feeling better?
BG - have you had E's Baptism yet? If yes, how did it go?
Cathy - LOL re the shower, I have had a few at 9pm at night after crazy days. I should really go and have one now as Bailey is asleep. Good to hear from you. I have been checking out your photo's on FB. Sounds like an infection re the Belly Button, maybe get it checked out?
AFU - all is well, although Bailey has had a few mornings where he wakes up with a terrible belly ache and cries and yelps with pain until he poo's. Yesterday I ended up giving him some paracetamol as I couldn't bear to watch him deal with it any longer (he then went to sleep and did a MASSIVE poo at the next feed), have tried lots of other ways to help him - bicycle legs, gentle massage, burping etc - any other ideas? I hate medicating him unless its absolutely necessary.
Yesterday we went out for lunch and he was sooooooooooooooo good, slept for 2.5 hrs in the pram (despite my PITA MILA hovering in front of him for 2 hours asking when he would wake - WHAT is WRONG with this woman,? I told her I would like him to remain asleep as he obviously needed it) When he awoke and settled happily back into his pram after his feed he was giggly and smiley for 2 hours - I was so proud of him. I am a horrible bit** though as later when the MIL again stuck her head in the pram he burst into tears after smiling at everyone else and I was secretly glad, serves her right for being a PITA all day. LOL Karma will no doubt get me for taking secret pleasure in that LMAO. I'm so evil!! I need to build a bridge and get over my MIL issues!!
I think Bailey is in the middle of his 12 week (I KNOW 12, yes 12 week) wonder week/growth spurt. He fed 11 times on Saturday and then slept it off yesterday and has had a few interesting mornings, but mostly things are getting easier overall.
I must go and visit some child care centres as we will be using a couple of days of child care this time next year and there are some LONG waiting lists so I really need to get it organised now - crazy, I think that will be my goal this week
Take care, and G'day to all the other Mummy's
Naomi
